The CPH Foundation

Quote from CDC Director, Dr. Tom Frieden, “This is a terrible time for public health.”

After Dr. Frieden’s keynote address at Atlantic’s Health Forum, cameras were rolling for the Q&A (see minute 24). Dr. Frieden discussed the hard times facing local public health and hints at the risks facing the CDC’s own budget - which is being held together with Prevention Fund dollars, evaluation transfers and scotch tape.
